American Chardonnay

Interesting

White · Full · Dry

California's flagship white — rounder, riper, and oakier than the Old World original, with tropical fruit, butter, and vanilla. Sonoma Coast and Sta. Rita Hills bottlings are leaner; Napa stays plush.

Why it works with Penne With Asparagus

American Chardonnay's richness matches Penne With Asparagus's cream or butter; oak and stone fruit add a layer.

White · Medium · Dry

Citrus, cut grass, and a wire of acid. Marlborough makes it loudest; Sancerre makes it most refined. Either way, it cuts cleanly through goat cheese, herbs, and anything with shellfish.

Why it works with Penne With Asparagus

Verdicchio's bright acid lifts Penne With Asparagus cleanly — the lean white strategy.
